Should I buy... (Page 67 of 87)

That seems pretty spendy for a 6.

It's indeed pretty decent, lately 500 euro is already becoming a normal asking price for the 6, due to the popularity of the 60. And I think you can have midi for maybe 50 or 80 euro.

Ach, schade...  I've seen them around here (the 'other' west coast) for 2-300 usd.  I guess I should set some money aside just in case I run across another cheapie.

Definitly, would be a good investment. They always used to be really cheap, cause except the arpeggio they lacked the ability for external control which kinda sucks for a poly synth in a midi studio. And of course; no memory, but that's not too bad. For a long time it was about 200 for the 6, 300 for the 60 and 400 for the 106. But as the 106 voices kept dying and everybody started raving about the reliability and warmer sound of the 6/60, things rather changed over the past 5 or 6 years. The 6 seems the last victim of the price trent tho. You could get those cheap until a year ago, so maybe you'll still be able to find one for a decent price.

I only heard of them. One thing that is a major difference to the NS10's is that the tweeter is aligned on the left on both speakers so that will influence the stereo image in a near-field set up. Another difference is the used tweeters. Yamaha slightly adapted the NS10m compared to the first NS10 (no M) and it are these 10M's that everybody raves about. The early NS10's where supposedly too bright and people put tissues in front of the tweeters to filter the highs. Now here's the thing: it looks like the 615B uses the original JA-0518 tweeters, instead of the modified JA-0518A you'll find in the NS10M... I'm not saying this is a reason to not get them (I have no experience with the original NS10's at all), but it is something you should know. Personally I would not get them because of the way the tweeters are aligned. 450 is also the price you'll pay for the NS10m's if those are what you initially want. But then again, maybe they're cool to have, they where designed as hifi speakers and you can probably sell them again for the same price you get them for.

Furthermore, there's a really interesting read on te NS10's on the Sound on Sound page:  http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/sep08/a … hans10.htm

is ms-20 for tr-808 a fair trade moneywise?

thanx 

Yeah that's what I was thinking... So it's probably much easier to just sell the MS-20 and then buy an 808 rather than find someone who would trade it.

How much for the MS-20? I don't know ... I have it up for trade on c-list right now but will probably try and sell it if i don't find any traders. You want to buy Ms-20 cebs?

c9, if you decide to sell send me a pm

Here even cheaper, 40 to 50 for those microseries effects.

in NL it depends on what type of effect: reverbs and enhanced delays (like the rps-10) are a bit more pricey than the chorus, compressor, distortion, etc.
